Elected 7 times BEST PROFESSOR by MIT Alumni
As a 22-year veteran of a nonprofit company that produces free products and services to the general public, this lesson was definitely enough of a prompt to hit the Subscribe button. Thanks! I've always enjoyed classes from professors who are at once knowledgeable, humble ("I can't teach you anything!"), and humorously self-effacing.
System dynamics with John Stearman was one of the best courses I took in MIT.
What were the assignments like?
I wonder if complex growth figures for complex systems was touched. www.researchgate.net/publication/270817856_Imaginary_Interest_Rates_and_Complex_Net_Present_Value_Calculus_in_Energy_Economics An imaginary growth rate is basically describing a cycle, an oscillation. Cycles are sustainable, whereas exponential growth (real number) is not sustainable in a finite world.
what a class.. whan an introduction class.. what a professor!!! amazing!
We need all lectures for this module, MIT ! ☺
"...all models are wrong, model is not the real system, only the reality is the reality.." This is gold. I remember a closely similar conclusion from an interview with David Bohm and many others, also with Krishnamurti.
You might like this one too: “All models are wrong; some models are useful” - Edwards Deming
I gotta get into MIT. BTW, most people aren't natural systems thinkers. They see a tiny part of the system and make a ton of assumptions based on their own biases, faulty beliefs, and past experience (this is a big one). It's interesting that he says models are always wrong. I think part of that is because you cannot accurately model 'reality.' But it is possible to perceive it as objectively as humanly possible (think metacognition, which means you can identify the limits of your own perception --
kind of paradoxical) and intuitively implement the most effective solution. Most exciting part about this, it goes far beyond business.
The full quote is "All models are wrong, but some models are useful". The challenge of course is to come up with a "useful" model (of whatever system one is trying to analyze).
@@RAJAT6555 I don't think you can say: "the more nonlinear it gets" because either it is linear or it is not linear. If it is linear then you can rather easily solve the dynamics and find a controller that keeps the system in a stable state. The small signal stability (=linearized around the working point) - and also large signal stabiliy are guaranteed and you avoid these overshoot and collapse scenarios or resonance catastrophies.
It is a pity there is no real Mooc or free online course to learn System Dynamics. It is still such a closed community.
There is Introduction to System Dynamics on MIT OCW
Do you have link. I can not find it anywhere by searching
Are you looking for videos? They're unlikely to be online. But if you are looking for an introduction to the tools and techniques of SD, please check course number 15.871 and 15.872 on MIT OCW (ocw.mit.edu/courses/sloan-school-of-management/). These are the two courses that make up one semester of introductory System Dynamics at MIT.
Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
I would recomend www.complexityexplorer.org/courses , their courses are always good!
sepiatone93 thanks! The last week I knew about Vensim and I “felt in love”... believe me, I’ll enjoy that MIT courses about systems dynamics.
Jeuel Alves See the Readings section of the course at ocw.mit.edu/courses/sloan-school-of-management/15-871-introduction-to-system-dynamics-fall-2013/readings/ for more papers on business dynamics. Hopefully this is what you are looking for.

how to see the full videos for this course?
His opening comments about teaching vs learning were music to my earsm
I would've loved this class.
Excellent class by Professor J. Sterman!
i want a teacher like him
Fascinating summary of system dynamics.
Thank you UA-cam if you are listening in from Kenya
The world would be a better place if has more professors like him.
And it would be even better if we could access the rest of the lecture videos.
@@farzanr.nobakht3022 I have tried and I could not find them anywhere.
I really like this class, thanks for posting!
So there's tasty food, 2 inches from your face, you can smell it, you can feel its temperature and right when you're about to take a bite, the video ends and there are no more lectures. =)
I love the way you break complex systems down. Good stuff!
Such an insightful lecture . Where r other lectures ? I need it badly
Only the introduction to the course was recorded. Any other course materials we do have, can be found on MIT OpenCourseWare at: ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13. Best wishes on your studies!
very good course....I need more cource specially for my research
I was wondering why he was considering the book heavy and there were no exams, then I noticed this is business system dynamics and not engineering.
It makes sense now
Alright, professor, I'm hooked. Off to the MIT page 🙂
understandable & interesting lecture.
Learning is kinda heuristic process, going round in circles, a very short version said in this video better known as Kuhn Cycle and its a picture.
Well this makes me want to go to MIT
Starts 2:44
This is a timely reminder and thought stimulator as to what the world is facing today.
Count Dooku started teaching at MIT
Brilliant lecture.You are a good teacher but rare breed.
Well ,system dynamic issue is very important for decision makers anytime , this presentation was very useful for me.
16:26 The basic assumption seems to be the perfect counter-measure to the Pygmalion effect.
Wonderful intro
I wish I would have seen systems and automation with him :o
Clearly discussed
I bought the textbook after reading it referenced in a different book. I've read most of it.
Hi, whats the name or title of the book?
brilliant. I love it so much
I wish I could bop around such guys more in my life! wait a second! no excuses... lets DO IT.... !!!! 10000%%%%%
It felt more like coming to a motivational session 😄
sucha great lecture
How many people who are listening to this lecture and expect that their BOSSES, for once...just once for god sake, listen to what prof Sterman said???
cool idea for a class
I think the diagram early in the session is wrong (at 7 mins 47 or so) - the linear movement from 'identify problem' through a few stages to 'implement' should not be labeled 'open loop' . It is a closed loop. Is this right?
That's the point he is making I think, it's an open loop considering that there is no iteration to it
I wish I had access to the full course. I'm a PhD student and all I ever came across in my university was reductionist approaches. Because of the subject I study the best methodology in my use case is systems dynamics. I'm really struggling to learn it because I can't find a well structured guide to take you through.
We don't have any more videos for this course but we do have some course materials. To see the materials visit MIT OpenCourseWare at: ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13. Best wishes on your studies!
@@mitocw thank you very much. I've already looked it up and the assignments will help me practice.
Starts 2:46
i didn't understand much but thank you
So I guess I am getting MIT education straight from my garage. Thanks ARPA ((Pun intended))
I like that Guy. He should be a preacher!
Teacher,
What papers can I associate with the study of the book about business dynamics?
Google Scholar might be able to help
damn a professor that encourages students to learn more, rare in shitty unis of the world
I want to know is there any connection between system dynamics and data science ?
13:25 it really bothers me there are 2 different types of quotes in this image
Carter Cole that's an interesting observation 😆
is this like a general intro to system dynamics course or is it related to engineering college?
Okay but one fourth of the lecture is just the prof tryna scare and talk down his pupils, could have easily edited that out
Where are the other video sessions of this good course?
No other videos were recorded for this course. Only the course introduction was recorded.
@@mitocw Why you did not record all his session? Can you make it again? His teaching quality is awesome. Maybe put it on edx.
It's mainly an issue of limited resources. We have a limited budget and people power to work on courses for MIT OpenCourseWare publication. We only select a limited number of courses to be fully recorded during any given semester. There are many variables on the priority: is it by a good professor who is retiring and it's the last lecture he's going to give? Is it a course in badly need of an update? Is it on a timely issue that would be good to publish on (e.g. pandemics). Etc. Etc.
@@mitocw You are the richest university in the world. You have ressources.
MIT has funded MIT OpenCourseWare for tens of millions of dollars ($1.5 - 2 million a year for almost 20 years). Within that we have to make choices on what we can do. Video is some of the most expense content we can do. We can only provide full video for a limited number of courses. Keep in mind, MIT OpenCourseWare is not just a UA-cam channel. We have materials for over 2400 courses at ocw.mit.edu - textbooks, exams, lecture notes, problems sets, and more. If you want to fund the capture of a course, contact us through the feedback form.

i think i just died and went to heaven
So this is system dynamics for business? I'm trying to find some of pure mathematics
What do you mean by "some of pure mathematics"? Are you more interested in the modeling aspect? If so this is a good book - Analytical Methods For Dynamic Modelers by Rahmandad, Oliva and Osgood.
wow thanks a lot!
What’s the name of the book
Everyone please contribute insights from this course to Wikipedia pages, thanks everyone
could you help me to get , author and Title (That the teacher has mentioned) the white one. please.
The required text is: Sterman, J. Business Dynamics: Systems Thinking and Modeling for a Complex World. McGraw-Hill / Irwin, 2000. ISBN: 9780072389159. (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/007238915X/ref=nosim/mitopencourse-20) See the course on MIT OpenCourseWare for more information and materials at ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13.
And it is posible to get the Syllabus to the lectures order and recommendations?
So where's the course..?
The course materials are available on MIT OpenCourseWare at: ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13. The introduction was the only video recorded for this course. Best wishes on your studies!
course book title?
When's the next lecture ?
id guess there isn't one
i still couldn't find the playlist it belongs @@brandomiranda6703
Which is the name of the textbook?
Sterman, J. Business Dynamics: Systems Thinking and Modeling for a Complex World. McGraw-Hill / Irwin, 2000. ISBN: 9780072389159. See ocw.mit.edu/15-871F13 for more info. Best wishes on your studies!
How i wish the book were translated to spanish... Its dificult for me understand it on english
who could tutor me online for this class? "system thinking" by email or skype or any method. or simply explain in an email some of the things I don't understand? I am willing to pay whatever fits. (ssm.00 at hot mail)
If you are looking for an introduction to the tools and techniques of SD, please check course number 15.871 and 15.872 on MIT OCW (ocw.mit.edu/courses/sloan-school-of-management/). These are the two courses that make up one semester of introductory System Dynamics at MIT.
No very good
sir
u r lectures are excellent -- How ever u r lectures r long -- pls make smaller modules
